Thread: Camo Kits...Are they working?

Just wonder what everyone's IG experience is with camo kits these days. Haven't used them since they were first introduced (they didn't work very well for me then). Any changes since? I'd hate to be ignoring them if they actually work now. When first used camo, it seemed to be like bbq sauce and I was the buffet special...hehe. I use maskscent exclusively now, and it works pretty well for me.

"I use maskscent exclusively now, and it works pretty well for me."


When the developers fixed /maskscent, they fixed /conceal as well.


There are still problems with humanoid NPCs ignoring /conceal, so using the skill on yourself is rather pointless (/maskscent is just as good without the expense).


However, /conceal works very well for concealing my travel companion who does not have /maskscent.

Know if there were any unstated updates to Camo after this patch, NRaas?

Only the change where it no longer drops during combat...



  • Beyond that I am not aware of any changes.

You know, the more posts I read about /conceal, the more mysterious it seems in my eyes. I started using it when I first got wayfaring I, which wasn't until I had the whole tracking tree completed, and I've got to say, I love it! I haven't had any problems with it not working against npcs. I walked up to a pair of nightsisters using a conceal kit I bought on the dath bazaar, and slapped one in the face. However, I've herad of a lot of people not having any luck at all against npcs. My conceal rarely breaks, though. Granted, I'm a bothan, but I was at wayfaring I when I tried this. So I don't really know what the deal is.


I find camo kits to be excellent, myself. But it seems like it might almost depend on how you use it and what your needs are. So I'd recommend making a kit or two and trying it out.

They work awesome, way better then my mask scent. I'm 4.4.3.4 ranger, and with two clothing items with +14 to both. My /conceal almost never breaks, even on advanced planets. Oh, and Im Bothan.
